🗣️ Discussion Points:

1. WolfCon Submissions (11:07:52 - 11:09:05):

   • Thomas encouraged the group to consider submitting presentations or working groups for WolfCon, with the deadline approaching on April 25th.

   • He highlighted the availability of remote presentation options due to travel restrictions and budget cuts, making it easier for those unable to attend in person.

2. Review of Tickets (11:11:16 - 11:29:48):

   • Introduction (11:11:16 - 11:11:37):

     • Olga initiated the review of tickets.

     • The focus was on JIRA-2955, which had been divided into three separate tickets for better manageability.

   • Export Courses Info (11:12:04 - 11:13:58):

     • Olga presented the first ticket, which involved exporting course information to a CSV file.

     • The export would include all fields related to the selected courses, useful for record-keeping, placing on circulation desks, and reporting comparisons.

     • Thomas suggested sharing the ticket details in the chat for a quick review.

     • The group discussed the language and functionality of the export button, ensuring it was clear and user-friendly.

   • Export Items Info (11:15:11 - 11:16:40):

     • The second ticket focused on exporting item information attached to courses.

     • This export would also be to a CSV file, with a button added to the course detail page.

     • The use cases were similar to the previous ticket, emphasizing the need for detailed item information for various administrative purposes.

     • Olga shared a screenshot to illustrate the proposed changes, ensuring everyone understood the functionality.

   • Export Courses and Items Info (11:17:13 - 11:18:21):

     • The third ticket combined the export functionality for both courses and items.

     • Olga proposed naming conventions to differentiate between the export buttons. This export might have potential high data volume for some libraries.

     • Thomas suggested consulting with UX experts like Kimmy for naming and UI consistency.

     • The group agreed that the names could be updated later based on feedback from the development team and UX experts.

   • Review of UXPROD-4869 (11:24:15 - 11:29:48):

     • The ticket involved moving the "Add Item" button to the top of the list for better usability.

     • Olga reviewed the proposed changes, including mock-ups and potential UX feedback.

     • The group discussed the layout, with Thomas noting that FOLIO typically uses a one-third two-third split pattern rather than a 50-50 split.

     • Thomas suggested the possibility of a collapsible portion to manage screen space better.

     • The group agreed to update the ticket with the proposed changes and seek further UX feedback.

✅ For the next meeting:

• Members of the group who added new features to the Google sheet will create draft tickets and we will review them at the meeting.

• Each member of the group will present an existing ticket that they picked from the list and suggest the edits if any needed.
